Wait.. I thought performing abortion in the third trimester was ALREADY illegal? Now it's moved to the second trimester? I guess it doesn't take a psychic to know that pretty soon it will be illegal to perform abortion in even the FIRST trimester. What's next? Contraceptions soon to be illegal in the US as prescribed by Pope JP the 2nd?

I often wonder if it were men (who make and pass our laws) who carried babies, would pro-choice be written into the law as well? It's quite easy for people to tell others what they SHOULD do with their body, but it's a totally different story when you are the one being told what you must do w/ your body. In the ideal world, people will want to keep their babies, and provide them w/ lotsa love and hugs and kisses. But, we don't live in this ideal world. No one goes around chanting pro-death, pro-death. No one wants to be a baby killer. Abortion is something most women want to avoid, it is a road no one wants to travel. It's not an easy road, but it should still be a road.

It would be very sad to see abortion being banned altogether. It's totally possible since it seems to be headed that direction. I guess women could always rely on back alley abortion clinics, or just use clothes hangers, and just kill themselves. That's what will happen. Both the baby and the mom will be aborted. That's just dandy.
